When I applied to be part of the Ali Mazrui class of young leaders I really didn’t think it was a big deal, having attended several leadership programs that kept teaching the same stuff every time.

But when I got the e-mail that I was among the lucky chosen ones out of all the applicant hyped me up and made me look forward to the training.

AMYL was the stepping stone I had been looking for to step into the better version of myself. After learning the 7 c’s and knowing how to craft my own story just made me become a better person.

It’s through the training that I overcame my fear of public speaking and was even able to visit a local secondary school by the name Apak and have a word with the candidates.

Seeing the MTY executives mentor young people into the best versions of themselves gives me this urge to just go out into the world and be unapologetically me.

I aspire to reach out and touch the lives of as many people as I’m able to and MTY has given the platform to do just that and I’ll forever be grateful.
